Carnaval toda la vida [English translation]

Why it is that everyone keep something

so hard things that nobody can say

and they all walk

like in a procession

of silent people without heart.

Why it is that I like the night

because anyone remaining is a father for me

who dares to say everything

and teaches you to live

what millions don't dare to say.

And time goes by

and life slips away

I just ask you to come back for real

and turn the silence into carnival.

Why it is that you bite your tongue

is the fear that stands in front of you

if memory chokes you

don't let yourself crawl

let's go outside 'cause my friends are leaving.

Why it is that you stay inside

don't stay 'cause outside is carnival

carnival all life long

and a night with you

if there's no gallop our hearts stop

And time goes by

and life slips away

I just ask you to come back for real

and turn the silence into carnival.

Why it is that I like the night

because anyone remaining is a father for me

who dares to say everything

and teaches you to live

what millions don't dare to say.

Why it is that you stay inside

don't stay 'cause outside is carnival

carnival all life long

and a night with you

if there's no gallop our hearts stop
